To tie Voters of Yankton.
The undersigned, acting under in.
structions from the citizens committee.
submit to the electors of Yankton the
following statement of the reasons which
induced the nomination of the ticket
now before the public:
There has been for some time very
generally expressed feeling that in the
election of municipal officers party lines
ought not to be drawn, and this feel
ing has been increased and intensified
by the evident tad results, in some
recent cases, produced by adhering to
the practice complained of. It is be-
lieved that intelligent men of all parties
are unanimous in the opinion that char
acter, ability, and general fitness, and
not party predictions, should deter.
mine the selection of officers to admin
lister our. local affairs. Manifestly there
is need, at all times, in the conduct oil
city affairs, of integrity, prudence,
sagacity and enterprise, qualities which
are not insured in the individual
aspIrant for office, by the fac,
that he has large political following
These considerations are ESPECIALLY for
cible at this time, when our city gov
ernment is liable to be called upon te
deal with questions of great commercial
Importance to us all At such time We
can not afford to assume any risk thai
the important interests OF this communi
ty may be committed to hands that art
either feeble or untfustworthy.
Acting upon these reasons, an homes
effort has been made to avoid that risi
by putting in nomination ticket. il
support of which all can unite, .ant
which carries upon its face the assuranc.
OF a wise snd public spirited administra
tion of public affairs in the ensuing
year.

Foreign Intervention I'm the Caro-
line and Marshall Islands.
SAN Francisco, September 1.-THE
schooner Fleur de Lis, formerly fleet
Yacht in this harbor, arrived in port
this morning, tifty-seven days from
Butaritari, Gilbert Island. Captain
Kustel has been trading in his little
craft for over two years among the
islands of the Gilbert group.
CAROLINA ISLANDS AFFAIRS.
The last news from the Caroline
group was that Spanish war-ship had
landed a garrison on Ponape,. the
chief island and had taken formal and
permanent possession of the groups,
which the Spanish have informally
claimed for a long time. A Spanish
colony is to be located at Ponape and
a permanent trading settlement cre-
ated. Two years ago the Germans
made claim for the group, but since
then no government has had any def
mite protectorate there.
THE MARSHALL ISLANDS.
At the Marshall islands Captain
kustel learned that the Germans we're
to locate troops for the protection OF
the governments interests. A Ger
man gunboat was there recently. The
Gilbert island foreign residents, al
though most of them Americans, have
to look to the British war vessels for
protection, for none of the United
States naval vessels have been there
for many years.

cess of his mission on the Nile he was
promoted to the full rank Of Bey and
decorated with the cross of Com
mander of Mejilidieh.

that time.
THE STANLEY EXPEDITION.
With regard to the rumors OF
Stanley's death, Colonel Long ex-
presses considerable disgust, and says
that he has reasons tobelieve that they
are circulated by Stanley himself,

creased.
EMIN PAsHA STILL ALIVE.
"The truth OF the business is this
said Col. Long; "Emin, Pasha never
was lost, but has been for ten years
securely established in Central Africa

WASHINGTON, September II. -
Another water famine is upon the
greater portion OF the city, caused by
the break Of a 36-inch water main this
morning, which supplies all the
northern part of the city. The break
is the most serious which has vet oc-
CURED, and it is feared that the north
ern part Of the city will be without
water for several days to come.
DETAILS OF THE AFFAIR.
The break occurred early this
morning. Suddenly, with loud re-
port, the water spurted up in the air.
Residents in the neighborhood were
startled by the noise, and in a few
minutes the vicinity Of the accident
was alive with excited and alarmed
people. On the side of the street, be-
tween Twentieth and Twenty-first
street, a column Of water broke from
the pavement with roar that could
be heard squares away. L street. for
several blocks, was a great river, the
water being deep enough to float
boats. The property damaged is con-
siderable, but nothing compared with
the inconvenience to thousands Of
citizens and certain disaster in case
